Who is this guy anyway?

My about page was one of the first things I put up on this site.
However, just looking at it the other day, I realized it didn’t answer the real questions I usually am asking myself when I’m intentionally looking at an about page somewhere else.

Well, if all you are interested in is what open source projects someone has contributed to, that is certainly true. However, for those who have mostly worked on commercial proprietary software, a github profile tells very little of the story.
Also, even for rather active open source contributors, the profile doesn’t give much hint about what the actual person is like.
My opinion, of course.
